The Venus Awards has introduced me to a
completely different network of influential
and exciting women. They are women Iâ€™d be
unlikely to meet under any other circumstances.

The biggest benefit is being able
to learn from what they have
been doing and to see where I
might be able to emulate their
successes and achievements to
help my own organisation.

Iâ€™m looking forward to keeping in touch
with them and building much stronger
business and support relationships

Itâ€™s given me a great understanding about
just how diverse womenâ€™s businesses are.
The enormous variety and commitment they
display is one that stimulates and sustains
me. As a result of taking part I feel much
more confident about my own future in a
woman focused business. I have so many more
women to look to for advice and support,
each of whom understand the particular
concerns women working at this level have.

Without women are a force to be reckoned
with in business. Individually we can do
much, collectively we can conquer the
world. The Venus Awards links women in
business together in a way that can help
achieve much bigger and broader goals.
